Before you update the firmware
Make sure you have your Mnemonic Code (24 seeds/words) for recovery
24 words were provided during the Initial Setup of your Biometric Wallet and you have written them down on the recovery card. Make sure you still have the recovery card before you proceed with the firmware update. 

Unlike other products, your wallet will still remain safely intact inside the secure chip even after updating the firmware. This means that you don't need to recover your wallet every time you update the firmware as other products requires you to do. 
After you update the firmware, you cannot roll-back to the previous version
To perform the firmware update, it is recommended to use the original D'CENT OTG cable. Firmware update will take approximately 10 minutes to complete.
